Youth from Butterfly House on the celebratory march

The SAWIP 2012 Team visited Butterfly House, Drakenstein Palliative Hospice in Paarl, on Friday 11 May, as part of the SAWIP curriculum theme of Public Health Care in South Africa. The visit coincided with the South African national Hospice Week and its 21st anniversary.

If South Africa were sitting on a shelf of the Continental Supermarket, where would it most likely be?

It is richly diverse, intricately textured with culture upon culture, and built upon the blood, sweat, tears and triumphs of generations of struggles. It is certainly a product with a story- a distinctively differentiated story that sets this nation apart on the competitive shelf of other young democracies in the aisle of Nations in (promising) Progress.
